Description:
Pupillary Reflex Pathways. The pupil is under competing autonomic control in response to light levels hitting the retina. The sympathetic system will dilate the pupil when the retina is not receiving enough light, and the parasympathetic system will constrict the pupil when too much light hits the retina. English labels. From OpenStax book 'Anatomy and Physiology', fig. 15.10.
